In The House With No Mirrors

Lyrics

Verse 1
Footsteps in a hallway
But this place has only one door
Picture frames turned sideways
Every face is on the floor
Teeth marks in the apple
Breathing on the intercom
TV whispers static prayers
All the channels saying
“Run”

Chorus
You’re not alone in your own reflection
Something’s watching from the corner of your eye
Every shadow making new corrections
Rewriting all the reasons why you’re fine
In the house with no mirrors
You can still see what you’re scared of inside
In the house with no mirrors
I’m the hand on the back of your mind (hey)

Verse 2
Coffee cup still steaming
But your phone log shows last year
All the clocks keep bleeding
Every second tastes like fear
Keys laid on the table
In the shape of your own name
You blink
The shape has twisted
Spells a word that sounds like “stay”

Chorus
You’re not alone in your own reflection
Something’s watching from the corner of your eye
Every shadow making new corrections
Rewriting all the reasons why you’re fine
In the house with no mirrors
You can still see what you’re scared of inside
In the house with no mirrors
I’m the hand on the back of your mind (oh yeah)

Bridge
Door chain rattles
But the lock never moves
You call out “Who’s there?”
And a voice says “You”
Light switch flickers
Shows the writing on the wall
“I was here before you
And I’ll stay when you’re gone”

Chorus
You’re not alone in your own reflection
Something’s watching from the corner of your eye
Every shadow making new corrections
Rewriting all the reasons why you’re fine
In the house with no mirrors
Every truth is just a beautiful lie
In the house with no mirrors
I’m the thought you can’t ever untie
